Eric Mabius

Eric Mabius' Hollywood career took him from the art house to the house of high fashion in one seamless and successful journey. As a star on the Golden Globe-winning series "Ugly Betty" (ABC, 2006-10) Mabius delighted fans with his portrayal of Daniel Meade, the Editor-in-Chief of a fictional fashion magazine, and boss to the unfortunately nicknamed title character, superbly played by America Ferrara. It would not be the first time Mabius had appeared in an underdog-does-good project. He was the dreamboat rocker whom Heather Matarazzo had an adolescent crush on in "Welcome to the Dollhouse" (1995), the movie that propelled Mabius' career into high gear before hitting mainstream success on "Betty."
